MR. HADDEN,s ArrEHr,oS

Is called to the extract which we
make from the Water Committee
Report on Public Water Supply
for the City Of Memphis" This re-
port was adopted by the Taxing Dis
trict Council aud must stand for
their expression Of opinion, their
expression of a deliberate purpose
to secure a supply of water from
Wolf river and their utter and
complete condemnation of the pro-
posed water supply from wells. This
sort of water the Council by this re-
port condemned because it is unfit
for general use, and because it is not
TO be depended upon as a constant
and reliable source. We trust the
members of the Council will take
time today to read this extract, and
that it may lead them to read the
whole report. They will find it
profitable, and it may, perhaps, make
them more stable and fixed in their
views.

JOHN SHERMAN ON HONEY.

Senator Sherman in his Nashville
speech makes some statements in re-
gard to the attitude of the Demo
cratic party towards banking that
will not bear scrutiny. In Jack
sons day and under his lead
it put an end to a meta.
rious system that had possessed itself
Of the government finances and was
fast usurping the government power.
The old United States Bank Of Mich
olas Biddle was q gigantic machine,
the grinding power Of which was felt
at every commercial center in the
Union. 1t dictated everything
the course and volume Of trade, the
success or downfall of men and the
election Of representatives. 1t was
strongly intrenched and was defiant.
1t could not have been successfully
dealt with by any other man than
Andrew jackson. His extraordinary
will and dominating spirit pushed all
obstacles aside and even Biddle had
to go down before him. The Demo-
Gratis Of this day as of that glory in
the uprooting of so imperious a
power and they pride themselves
upon the history of such banks as
that Of the State of Tennessee,
than which there was never in any
country a more liberal and fairly and
honestly managed or successful bank.
1t supplied the people Of Tennessee
with currency as good as gold, and
earned profits that even in these days
Of big percentages would be a
marvel. 1t was the product of Dem
ocratic legislation; was controlled
and managed nearly altogether by
Democrats, and in every respect was
a signal success.

THE IusTI MURDER

And the attempted murder of the
Majors family on the Pigeon Roost
road are a standing appeal for the
use Of mounted policemen in the
suburbs Of Memphis. 1t is all very
we'll for boomers to boom lots, but
no one but an idiot would build in
suburbs that are unprotected and
where two such atrocious crimes
have been perpetrated with i'm
punitY. The thirty new policemen
authorized by the Legislature should
be mounted for service day and
night in a radius of country that
is fully twenty-five miles in ex-
tent. Peace and protection will thus
be cheaply purchased, and once guar
anteed lots would double in price
compared with what they are now.
The JUST murder and the attempted
murder of the Majors family are a
warning of what may be repeated if
the suburbs are not thoroughly po-
Iced.

MANS INHUMANTTY TO MAN.

The proposition to send convicts
to Alaska has been revived by the
New York Herald, and seems to
have the sanction of many of the
leaders among the workingmen of
that city. 1t is a long time since
The Exile of Siberia first awakened
the sympathies Of Europe for the
oppressed people of Russia, but that
story is still living influence. 1t
rises in protest against the establish
ment of a convict settlement in so
remote region. The reasons
against such scheme are as
thousands to one for it. In
time, and very short time,
it would become, a gigantic
job like the fur trade, and the un-
fortunate criminals would become
the hopeless slaves of irresponsible
and brutal taskmasters. This scheme
is full of possible infamies, and is
not seriously to be thought of. The
American people have duties to per-
form for the benefit of their unfortu-
mates; they must look to the gracious
weapons of reform, education and
self support to kill and stay all crime
aud reduce the great army of Grim.
malls Deportation Of convicts is not
to be thought Of.

ing week last year. Country flour has
maintained values. Foreign wheat is

from Russia, Australia and India will

WATER.

Tho proposition revived hy Mr..
Graves to supply the city with water
from wells is. in view Of the fact that
we have an inexhaustible supply of
water visible at our doors almost
absurd. Why bore for what We
have an abundance of The thing
to do is not to waste any more pre-
cious time with experiments, but
go to work in q sensible and business
like way TO secure a plentiful supply
Of water from W of river at a point
above all possible city or almshouse
pollution. Properly filtered, as ex-
perts assure us, it is as good water as
is anywhere to be found in the world.
Let us have it, then, and in abund-
snce and so thoroughly filtered as to
reach the consumer, clear and limpid
as a mountain stream in the Allie
ghanies, Two years of precious time
were given to this quest ion of water
by a commission whose report is
admitted by experts to be exhaustive
of tho whole question of water sup
ply for Memphis. They condemn
this proposed well supply and for ade-
quate and scientific reasons, To give
time oft, therefore, is to play with
the vital interests of the city and to
put the Council in anything but an
enviable attitude. Tho thing to do,
and do quickly, is, the city failing to
supply the people, to compel the
Water Company with its already we'll
laid plant aud machinery to dis
tribute a plentiful supply of pure,
clear water from Wolf river.

THERE have been those who have
voted children troublesome since ever the
world begun, but how much trouble they
might create has never been fully settled.
AS a pointer in that direction
it is well to know what 100 chill
dren did in Norwich, Conn. Led
by girl sixteen years of age they
struck for higher pay, and have for over
month effectually blocked the wheels Of
Shetueket cotton mill, throwing out Of
employment about 600 people. These
little folk are very persistent in their de-
mands, and no amount of threat, persua-
sion, or absolute distress has thus far
